the best reading for boys and girls. The serial

valuable articles on scientific Subjects and
travel, historical and biographical sketches,
papers on athletic sports and games. stirring
poems, etc, contributed by the brightest and

OF the foremost artists and engrayers lavishly
adorn its pages.
Every line in the paper is subjected TO the
most rigid editorial scrutiny IN order that moth

tending through the southern portion of
